Component:
Seat belts:rear
Manufactured:
05/31/1991 - 05/31/1993
Affected:
157,740
Defect:
Vehicle fails to conform to fmvss no. 209, "seat belt assemblies." the safety belt of the left third row seat on the six passenger van and the center second row seat of the seven passenger van may lock up and cannot be withdrawn from the retractor.
Consequence:
Consequence of non-compliance: the occupants of these seats will not be able to use the affected belt. in the event of a vehicle crash, unbelted occupants are at increased risk of injury.
Correction:
Owners are being asked to inspect their vehicles to determine if the suspect retractor exhibits a lockup condition. based on this inspection, dealers will replace the safety belts if the belt locks up. replacement of the suspect safety belt will be available to consumers for the life of the vehicle.

Defect:
The second row, right hand shoulder belt can become "pinched" between the seat and the door frame pillar trim. the shoulder belt may not retract properly, which does not comply with the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection." the 1994 vehicles have an optional integral (built in) childseat installed next to the power sliding side door. the 1993 involved vehicles have standard seats in that same position.
Consequence:
Improper shoulder belt retraction does not provide adequate protection to the seat occupant in the event of a sudden stop or collision.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the door frame pillar trim panel with a redesigned trim panel. also, a caution label will be applied to the child seat advising the owner not to install the seat to the passenger side of a vehicle with a power sliding side door.
